Signatures of chaos and thermalization in the dynamics of many-body quantum systems.
(arXiv.org, 2018-04-17)We extend the results of two of our papers [Phys. Rev. A 94, 041603R (2016) and Phys. Rev. B 97, 060303R (2018)] that touch upon the intimately connected topics of quantum chaos and thermalization. In the first, we argued ... -
Signatures of chaos and thermalization in the dynamics of many-body quantum systems.
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2019-03)We extend the results of two of our papers [Phys. Rev. A 94, 041603R (2016) and Phys. Rev. B 97, 060303R (2018)] that touch upon the intimately connected topics of quantum chaos and thermalization. In the first, we argued ... -
Small fish, watermelon, cucumber, leek,onion, and garlic
(Stern College for Women, Torah Activities Council (TAC), Yeshiva University, 2023)Food availability was a complaint of B’nei Yisrael when traveling through the desert. “We remember the fish that we ate in Egypt free of charge; the cucumbers and the melons (Rashi: watermelons), the leeks, the onions, ... -
Social categories as markers of intrinsic interpersonal obligations.
(SAGE Publications, 2013-06)Social categorization is an early-developing feature of human social cognition, yet the role that social categories play in how children understand and predict human behavior has been unclear. These studies test whether ... -
Speck of chaos.
(American Physical Society, 2020)It has been shown that, despite being local, a perturbation applied to a single site of the one-dimensional XXZ model is enough to bring this interacting integrable spin-1/2 system to the chaotic regime. Here, we show ... -
Strange, but true
(Office of the Dean, Stern College for Women, 2003)It is often stated that education in Torah must be a continual, life-long process. A child that terminates his/her Torah education at an early age remains with that minimum knowledge, which further lessens, throughout later ... -
Talmud Chullin: Some science behind the text
(Yeshiva University Stern College for Women, 2020)Every tractate in the Talmud has its own flavor, its own essence, and its own soul. The secular background needed to fully comprehend a tractate will depend on the overriding theme of that tractate. For example, one ... -
Teach like a human : essays for parents and teachers
(Rowan & Littlefield, 2020)¶Teach Like a Human: Essays for Parents and Teachers is a collection of essays focused on educating children to care about themselves, their communities, and the world we are privileged to share. Written for parents and ... -
Teach like a human: The reality gap in educator preparation.
(The University of Chicago Press, 2016)This reflective essay examines educator preparation through the lens of Paul Kalanithi’s poignant memoir When Breath Becomes Air. Based on her work with preservice teacher candidates, the author questions the meaning of ... -
Teaching science to the Torah-observant student
(Stern College for Women, Yeshiva University, 1999)Graduation from an educational institution entails the successful completion of a more or less prescribed regimen of course work. As students have varied interests, aptitudes, and career goals, each course does not ... -
Teaching Teacha! An exploration of culturally responsive pedagogy in Jewish education
(Routledge / Taylor & Francis, 2014)This case study examines the contours of culturally relevant pedagogy in an undergraduate preservice teacher education program for Jewish women. The case describes how the assigned reading of Albarelli’s (2000) narrative ... -
Thermalization time in many-body quantum systems.
(arXiv preprint, 2021-02-23)Isolated chaotic many-body quantum systems can reach thermal equilibrium, but it is not yet clear how long they take to do so. To answer this question, we use exact numerical methods and analyze the entire evolution, ... -
Thirsty for Torah ; thirsty for water.
(Office of the Dean, Stern College for Women, 2004)Rav Aryeh Kaplan, noting that everything in the spiritual world has a counterpart in the physical world, cited several sources showing "water" is the physical counterpart of Torah study [l]. For example, in Taanis (7a), ... -
Thouless and Relaxation Time Scales in Many-Body Quantum Systems.
(arXiv.org, 2018-07-19)Studies of the dynamics of isolated interacting many-body quantum systems are at the forefront of experimental and theoretical physics. A major open question is the identification of the time scales involved in the ... -
Thouless and relaxation time scales in many-body quantum systems.
(American Physical Society, 2019-05-28)Abstract A major open question in studies of nonequilibrium quantum dynamics is the identification of the time scales involved in the relaxation process of isolated quantum systems that have many interacting particles. ... -
Timescales in the quench dynamics of many-body quantum systems: Participation ratio versus out-of-time ordered correlator.
(American Physical Society, 2019-05-31)We study quench dynamics in the many-body Hilbert space using two isolated systems with a finite number of interacting particles: a paradigmatic model of randomly interacting bosons and a dynamical (clean) model of ... -
Ubiquitous quantum scarring does not prevent ergodicity.
(SpringerNature, 2021-02-08)In a classically chaotic system that is ergodic, any trajectory will be arbitrarily close to any point of the available phase space after a long time, filling it uniformly. Using Born’s rules to connect quantum states with ... -
Universal fractional map and cascade of bifurcations type attractors
(Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2013-09)We modified the way in which the Universal Map is obtained in the regular dynamics to derive the Universal α-Family of Maps depending on a single parameter α>0, which is the order of the fractional derivative in the nonlinear ... -
V'ten tal u'matar li-vrachah: Thoughts on dew
(Stern College for Women, Yeshiva University, 1998)Beginning with the first week in December and continuing until the first day of Pesach, the phrase 'v'ten tal u'mattar livrachah"-"and give dew and rain for a blessing," is incorporated into the ninth blessing ... -
“What am I missing?” Social information processing in remote learning
(Lookstein, 2021-06-01)Social Information Processing Theory postulated by J. B. Walther, examines how relationships are developed through computer mediated communication, devoid of non-verbal cues. His work focused mainly on computer mediated ...
